Thanks, will order some nylon then (Any idea on how thick it should be? Too thin and it will just look retarded :p )
Btw, the link didn't work..

I realize this is a very old thread, but I would love to try one of those net ropes. Does anyone know where I can find netting like that?

I found some 1/2" bird netting, I think that's what it is, at Home Depot. It is a freakin' ginormous roll of it (like 4' x 10' or something ridiculous), but it was only $8 here. I'm just gonna use that, just cut it to fit.

Moss Vine

So, here's what I did with this whole idea. I have a large wood stump that I'm going to add to my 75g. I'm going to add some moss, or somethng else, to certain areas of it but one thing I wanted was to add something that looks like a vine, wrapped around the trunk of the wood.
I found thin nylon rope, used 3 lengths of it to create a triple braid, and braided moss into it. After a few weeks, here's what it looks like.

Of course, the closer it is to the light, the faster it is growing. So, the bottom half is'nt as filled in as the top half. I may have to string it out accross the top, about an inch or so below the surface.
All in all, I think it's comming along good. I'll trim it back alittle, let it grow in fuller, and in no time I'll be adding my stump, with the rope wraped around it.
